On Sunday, cops tracked a stolen package from outside a house to a location just a few blocks away, according to the department's statement. Steve Lopez, 25, and Dandre Lageman, 30, were arrested and charged with felony grand theft and are being held in lieu of $20,000 bail, police said.

At least four arrests of “career criminals” have occurred since the baited packages went into use, police said. In one case, police tracking a GPS-laden box arrived to find several other stolen packages, the department said.

Those packages were returned to their rightful owners in time for the holidays, police said.
